SORRY BUT MADDY IS SOLD

She has gone to a great home with Laurna. We wish them all the best.

Madam’s Star, 12 yr old mare “Our very special Star Way Mare.”

Star Way was the Sire of the super talented 3 day event horse “Ghost of Hamish” who represented Germany at the Beijing Olympic and in case you missed it the German eventing team won the gold medal!

Star Way is known for producing great brood mare daughters. Small in stature but with good body, strength and great movement. Small mares they may be but big producers and big hearted mares, they definitely are tough horses, not afraid of hard work.

It’s every breeder’s nightmare at foaling season that our precious mares will have trouble birthing. We at Allander Acres are very blessed to have a fantastic veterinarian not five minutes away. Our vet, Shane Massey, from the Raglan branch of the Anexa Group is perpetually on call for us during foaling/breeding season. His dedication to our horses makes it possible for us to do what we do.

On the 4 November 2009, our mare Jewel had trouble foaling as a result we lost her. There is no time for grief at this time as we were faced with an orphan foal to care for. Maddy was Jewel’s paddock mate and sadly witnessed the event.

Not an hour after her mate died, Maddy foaled producing Samuel. Like all Laudallander progeny, Samuel bounced to his feet and got right on with the feeding job like a pro.

Once Samuel was up and feeding and steady on his pins, Maddy left the spot she had been standing like a statue for the past 2 hrs and walked over to Jewel’s foal and took him under her wing. She has been caring for the 2 of them ever since, and with the help of some supplemental feeding, they have thrived.

This is an outstanding natured mare that has held her condition fabulously rearing 2 colts as her own. Kind and big hearted, she is our super star and passes her nature and elastic movement onto all her progeny.

She is an easy breeder and goes without say but a phenomenal mother.

Price empty: $1,200.
